WOW! This was so simple to make and super fast for such and elegant dessert. I made it as written, just reduced to two servings. Due to a time crunch I'm rating a little early before my creams have chilled properly - it doesn't matter the batter itself is so delicious! Toasted almonds and a few amaretti crumbs make the perfect topping adding a nice textural contrast. Thanks for sharing! Made for 2014 Culinary Quest for the Cruisin' Culinary Queens.
